"Norrrrrr!" I shouted at him when he drew on my face with his hand that is full of black paint.

We planned to paint today, because I asked him to teach me to mix colors. But he's just playing on me. He's making fun of me again. "Kiyowooo~" He even said that even though I'm glaring at him. "Come closer." I demanded.

"Nah ah, I'm not a fool." He laugh. He's making me- arghhh! I immediately took the chance to draw on his face while he's looking somewhere. But shit, he easily moves away that made me fall in his body. "Oh-"

He stared at my eyes. My hands are about to draw on his face, but I stared back at his eyes. It was so sad...

I slowly draw on his face. I drew a smiley face on his cheek. "Smile choosy guy." I smiled. "Nope." I stand up and clean my hands. "I hate you." I left him there alone inside the room.

"Cupcake wait for me!" He's laughing while following me. "I don't care! Leave me alone!" Tsk. What a man right?

I heard a loud noise. I turned to look what was that. And I was shocked to see Jungkook lying there at the ground. "Jungkook-ssi!" I ran to him. But his eyes are closed. "Jungkook-ssi, hey wake up." I slightly tap his cheek. He's not even responding. I'm starting to worry about him. This is my first time seeing him like this.

With my strength, I tried to bring him to the bench. It took me a few minutes just to bring him there. I sat down the bench and let his head rest on my lap. I'm waiting for him to wake up. I couldn't do anything but to only check his pulse. There's no one here, only the two of us. I can't ask for help because they're far away from here. I only caress his hair while staring at his face.

What happened to you Jungkook-ssi? Please not now, it's too early. . . You can't leave me here alone yet. When will you open your eyes?

It was already 4 hours since he collapsed. He's still not waking up. And I'm feeling sleepy. Should I sleep for a while? Just for a while, I'm sleepy even in my dreams.

I opened my eyes and I see no Jungkook in my lap. I just feel my head resting to someone's shoulder. I immediately look what's happening. I see Jungkook's smile in front of me.

"H-hey..." I uttered.

"Did I wake you up?" He asked. I hit his chest causing him to groan. "I thought something serious has happened to you. What happened? Why did you collapsed?" I pout at him.

"Sorry if I ever made you worry. This is my first time to experience this." He looks so confused. "Rosie, do you know what just happened to me? I feel like I was in the real world earlier. I'm hearing voices, but I can't see them." My brows furrowed.

"What did you hear? What exactly happened?"

"I feel like I'm just sleeping. I hear voices that sounds like they're nurses or doctor. I can also hear a machine.." Holy freak, I knew he has a chance to survive!

"Jungkook-ssi! Listen, I guess you finally did it. You're awake, but not totally. You can't open your eyes yet? You can only hear sounds? That means you're starting to feel better that's why you collapsed for a long time." I happily said while clapping my hands.

"Is that so? You said we'll survive together. Don't be a stubborn cupcake and follow your medications. Have you drink your medicines?" Cupcake, my foot.

"I'll drink later once I woke up." He shake his head on me. "Btw, I'm so happy for you Jungkook-ssi. Can't wait the time when you're fully awake and recovered." I smiled. "You too. Let's meet each other once we get rid of these illnesses we have."

"Yes of course. So that I'll totally punch you in the face." I laughed. "A cupcake? Will punch me? No way..."

"I'm not gonna be mad at you today. I'm just happy for you." I'm sincere when I said that. This hopeless guy here, now have the hope to live.

"When are you planning to go see Jennie and Jisoo again?" He changed the topic. "Oh! I almost forgot. Maybe tomorrow, I wanna stay here for a while. Jungkook-ssi let's eat something."

"What is it?"

. . .

"Chips? Sodas? Yah Rosé, that's not good for your health." I placed all the foods I bought on the bench. "It's fine. This is only a dream anyways. I'm hungry too, you made me wait for a couple of hours." I gave him the other soda I have. He accepted it. "Psh, what a choosy guy. Indeed." I scoffed.

"I'm just joining to eat with a stubborn cupcake here."

"Aish why?! Why do you have to call me cupcake?" I rolled my eyes on him. "It's just cute. You look cold on the outside, but you're a sweet one on the inside."

"Whatever. You're still the choosy guy I know." I smirked and eat all the foods. I'm so so so so so hungry because of this man here beside me.

"I'm just curious about something..." I murmured. We're still here near the river sitting at the bench. Jungkook's eyes are closed and I'm staring at the river. "Hm?"

"If ever we didn't see each other here anymore, will you find me?" I asked. "Of course I will." I looked at him and he opened his eyes. "Rosé. Do you know how important you are to me?" His question made the situation awkward. "I-I don't know... How would I know that.." I replied and avoided his eye contact.

"Forget it. You'll never understand." He sighed.

"Rosie?" A voice caught my attention and my eyes widened to see Nini with Jisoo eonni together with her imaginary boyfriend.

I immediately stood up and went to them. "Omo, how on earth- why are you guys here?"

"That's not what's important right now. Of course we're all in a dream." Nini winked at me.

"We decided to travel to different dreams. And luckily we saw the two of you here." Eonni followed. "Oh Jungkook-ah, so you're really staying here?"

"Ne.." I'm not aware that he's already here beside me. "Then how about when Rosie is about to wake up? You're still here?" Jennie asked an awkward question. He only nodded. They both gasped in shock. Jin doesn't have any reaction at all.

"Omo, he waits for you everyday Rosie! Awts..."

"Yah what are you talking about?" I laughed awkwardly. "Isn't he a cute one? He waits for you even in the dark." Here we go again, it really makes me feel guilty. "Enough guys. She'll be more stubborn." He interrupted that made me look at him. He's right, it will make me more stubborn and refuse to wake up just to stay here with him.

But that doesn't change my plan at all. I'll still sleep just to be here. I don't want him to be alone especially in the dark. It may worsen his illness because of suffocation. Now that he's slowly waking up and gaining his consciousness. I will let him live, not die...
